BionicPup64 no sound in Firefox (Solved)

Post by yuan »

hi,all

I like puppy linux very much. I have been using it since 2015. I recently switched the version to BionicPup64. I found some problems during the use. I hope to get your help.

1. Firefox 6.0.0.2esr has no sound when playing videos on the webpage.

2. The program of 'VidCutter-6.0.0-x64.AppImage' cannot run normally, the error is as follows:

Code: Select all

# /root/VidCutter-6.0.0-x64.AppImage
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'
Segmentation fault

thanks!

Which Bionicpup?????
Bionicpup32 8.0?
Bionicpup64 8.0?

Firefox sound is a constant problem with Firefox!
It is a Firefox issue in all Puppy versions.
There are topics on the forum about fixing it!

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected :o

@yuan - your Firefox issue is probably due to apulse missing.

hi @yuan

vidcutter is a problem package and you would be better off using something else such as kdenlive or openshot

hi,all

I created a startup script for the Firefox program and placed it in the /usr/bin/ directory. The web video can play sound.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
apulse /opt/firefox/firefox "$@"

Thanks everyone for your help!
